The plural of regex is regrets 😂

If you tell your friends about Mastodon, you’re technically an ambassador of the federation.

I remember in the mid ‘90s, Bill Gates said something like ‘if the car industry had improved at the same rate as the computer industry, cars would go at a thousand miles per hour and get thousands of miles per gallon’ and someone at a car manufacturer replied that their customers are quite glad that the cars don’t crash several times a day.

I am starting to wonder if Tesla is an elaborate piece of performance art in support of this joke.

Program goes to Operating System, tears in eyes, says "my state, it is very bad"

Consider this code. One thread repeatedly prints the number 100 in decimal to std::cout. Another thread repeatedly prints the number 0x100 in hex (which will output as '100') to std::cout.
